Theoretical Study of the Effects of Carrier Transport, Capture, and Escape Processes on Solar Cells with Embedded Nanostructures

Figure 6

Total output photocurrent (normalized to the photocurrent contributed from nanostructures) as a function of the ratio carrier lifetime in nanostructures and the carrier escape time ( ) at different ratios of the carrier transport time and the carrier lifetime of the bulk material ( ). Note that the carrier capture time is assumed to be 1 ps.
